Firearms instructor shoots self at S&W
A United Nations firearms instructor from France accidentally shot himself during recertification training at Smith & Wesson late Thursday morning.
Springfield Police Sgt. John Delaney said the man, who is not being publicly identified, shot himself in the thigh during the class, which was held at their 299 Page Boulevard Shooting Sports Center at around 11:00 A.M.
The instructor was rushed to a local hospital for treatment and is expected to be okay.
There are a bunch of options for French Firearm jokes here but no. Shit happens and it is good that the guy was not seriously injured...
